Lazy VS event request

I wasn't too interested in the VS thing when it was revealed, I played it. I did missions. I forged tokens. I opened balls. I did stuff. It's over. K. I'll admit I had the worst experiances I've ever had in this game during the event. Some of the ARAM matches I was forced to be in for certain mission quests were among the most frustrating and soul crushingly debilitating matches I've ever played.

I actually lost few Co OP vs AI matches because of there being three or more bots on the human player team. At one point I had to play and lose through what I recall as about eight, or nine matches of ARAM before I won one. I've never quit a match, as if like, just exit the game and walk away. I've been frustrated and walked around defending turrets and played half heartedly, but I never quit before. But I found myself sitting still staring at the Howling Abyss in more than one ARAM game having to take momments and set myself aside from the game.

Because I felt something I havn't felt since my teenage years playing the VS event. And that was rage. Video game rage. It .... ha. Haha it shocked me. I was so furious it caught me off guard and....I walked away from this game and watched TV for the first time.

League is a strategy based MOBA, and I don't get how taking all that strategy and balance and just throwing it out the window, "All random all mid" how is that fun? It's like playing Chess, but all the pieces are now pawns even your king and in order to win you gotta take all the enemy pieces not just the King because there is no King. It's a different game! It's not fun!

Literally anyone that finds ARAM fun is the kind of person that shouldn't be playing MOBA's in general. If all random, all one lane, no strategy free for all is fun for you, why are you playing a Massive Online Battle Arena style game involving team work strategy multiple phases of the game neutral objectives and the whole kit and kaboodle?

Playing ARAM is like going to Red Lobster, ordering and paying for your meal ( 30 to 50 bucks depending ) and then you're given your food in to-go bags and have to wait until you drive home to eat it. Why? You're not paying for the dining experiance of eating in the resteraunt. You're not paying for fresh high quality food when it gets cold on the way home. You might as well have went up the road to Captain D's or Long John Silvers, why drive up to Red Lobster just to take the food home? That's what playing ARAM is like in the game of League.

And the bots in the AI modes. Wow. Yeah. Season 3 player here. I started playing when Thresh was on the Login Screen. And in all this time, never had I been so furious frustrated upset angry and unsatisfied with the game. Came close a few times, but never this intense. The event felt like it was the only reason to be playing at the time, and the Missions were not fun or neat and they did not spice up the gameplay offering new ways to play.

They felt like arbitrary tasks to complete that I did not enjoy that often rewarded me with a pathetic 10 tokens I had to save up to make actual use of. Being asked to win a match made game of ARAM sounds easy, but when you lose 8 games in a row you start to question how "fun" a totally "random" game mode is, in a game that is designed for strategy and tactical based decision making

My whole point is, fuck the VS event. I'm just curious and wanna read the comic associated with it, now that the event is over and the comic is "complete" I just don't feel like searching around on the site and trying to read the comic in chronological order. Could anyone please be so kind as to link me to the comic, in pages if need be, so I could conveniently read it all at once?

TLDR

I can haz VS comic linkz plaese?
